Would you date a guy who is unemployed?

Most Helpful Girl

I never say never, every situation is different. But in most cases, I'd say probably not. Being unemployed isn't an option as an adult. So he should either sort through that before getting in a relationship, or shortly after getting into one. I would not continue to date a guy long term who wouldn't get a job.

@KidInk4, like from what? Disability? Social Security? Inheritance/Allowance? Social security would mean too old for me. Inheritance without a job could mean a lot of laziness and entitlement. Disability is the only one to truly consider, and even then, I work in a hospital and the majority of people on it are abusing it. Ex: I'm too anxious to get to work on time. So it would depend on his condition, which opens up a whole new can of worms.Again, I never say never, but none of those things appeal to me much. It's not just about having the money, it's about what holding down a job or owning a business says about you.

What Guys Said 9

When i first dated my wife she was unemployed for a while, but it did not bother me, why, because i fell in love with her, for who she was. Strangely, i have seen many many men get turned down because their unemployed, i guess it will change, and i think its becoming harder for guys to find jobs.

Here's a scenario... the guy is a millionaire, has shares and property investments to turn over an income for him and doesn't need a job, so spends his time travelling around the world or feeding the homeless orphaned kittens

Oh, I know that you weren't brought up in Japan. I assumed though that you considered yourself part of the "women here in asia" since most of your answers I see you give implies that. But it was rude of me to call you out like that. I'm terribly sorry.

And congratulations on Japan reaching the finals!

We are devastated about the own goal but it was world class pass anyway for the own goal to even happen in the first place. I remember you kind of took Japan getting eliminated in the men's World Cup rather harshly.

i don't have the same way of thinking as women who were born and raised here especially when it comes to men as everyone here tells me how crazy i am for caring about looks as opposed to money@unknownxyz
